There has been a lot of talk in our house recently about honor rolls. It is partially because Middle Boy made the honor roll at his school and it is partially because Younger Sister made the honor roll at her school.

Younger Boy came home today and announced "no one is on the honor roll at my school". Allegedly they have an honor roll, but no one gets good enough grades. He doesn't even understand the absurdity of this lie.

He recently realized that you can only get 16 "slashes" in a quarter and still go to the quarter party. He REALLY wants to go this quarter. We are four weeks in and he has 15 slashes. There are five weeks to go.

Pray for Younger Boy and his academics.
